Four-spotted chaser resting on a blade of grass

The summer image shows a four-spotted chaser resting on a single blade of grass, photographed close to the water’s edge. The blurred green background highlights the dragonfly’s body and wings, while the surroundings at Svanholm Lake appear as a quiet wetland in June

The four-spotted chaser is recognised by the dark spots in the middle of its wings, which gave the species its name
